Milestones
The first successful animal embryo transfer was in Vietnam (1978).The first successful in vitro fertilization and embryo sexing in animals in Vietnam (2002,2003). Application of somatic cell nuclear transfer for conservation of genetic resources of endangered wild species since 2000.


STEM CELL TECHNOLOGY-BIOMEDICINE
CRYOBIOLOGY- CELL & EMBRYO PRESERVATION
The first world successful embryo cryopreservation by rapid freezing after partial dehydration at room temperature (1983). The first baby from cryopreservation semen in Vietnam (1999)
ADVANCED REPRODUCTIVE BIOTECHNOLOGY




DIGITAL INTEGRATION


Stem cell isolation, characterization, expantion and standardization. Production of animal embryonic stem cells, human mensenchymal stem cells; production of cardiac, neural stem cells by in vitro differentiation (2002, 2007. 2015).
Science & Technology Potentials






IInterdisciplinary integration of informatics and biotechnology for developing a new strategy of in situ-ex situ combined biodiversity conservation, developing a model of digital farming, upgrading the level of automated real-time monitoring for cell cryobanking, cell culture and therapy.
